The International Physics Olympiad (IPhO) is an annual physics competition for high school students. It is one of the International Science Olympiads. The first IPhO was held in Warsaw, Poland in 1967. [1] Each national delegation is made up of at most five student competitors plus two leaders, selected on a national level.
Each subject in the examination is graded out of 100 marks. [3] For subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Home Science, Mathematics, Geography, etc. for which practical exams are also conducted, 30/20 marks are reserved for practicals and internals and 70/80 marks for the theory exams.
Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University has 14 university schools (colleges), 12 of them are on the main campus in Dwarka and 2 colleges, USAR and USDI are on the new campus at East Delhi. [2] School at Main Campus: University School of Architecture and Planning (USAP) University School of Basic & Applied Sciences (USBAS)
The following is a list of notable unsolved problems grouped into broad areas of physics. [1]Some of the major unsolved problems in physics are theoretical, meaning that existing theories seem incapable of explaining a certain observed phenomenon or experimental result.
The Feynman Lectures on Physics is a physics textbook based on a great number of lectures by Richard Feynman, a Nobel laureate who has sometimes been called "The Great Explainer". [1] The lectures were presented before undergraduate students at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), during 1961–1964.
In the gravitational two-body problem, the specific orbital energy (or vis-viva energy) of two orbiting bodies is the constant sum of their mutual potential energy and their kinetic energy (), divided by the reduced mass. [1]
The radiant exitance (previously called radiant emittance), , has dimensions of energy flux (energy per unit time per unit area), and the SI units of measure are joules per second per square metre (J⋅s −1 ⋅m −2), or equivalently, watts per square metre (W⋅m −2). [2]
Induced polarization (IP) is a geophysical imaging technique used to identify the electrical chargeability of subsurface materials, such as ore. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The polarization effect was originally discovered by Conrad Schlumberger when measuring the resistivity of rock.
